People in those countries will have access to Hollywood, local, and global TV series and movies, as well as Netflix original series, on their TVs, phones, computers, game consoles, and tablets.

Pricing, supported devices, and programming details will be available at a later date, according to the announcement.

The Los Gatos-based company announced in February that it would take on $400 million in long-term debt in the first quarter of 2014 to fund international expansion and original content.

Netflix began its international expansion in Canada in 2010. It is now available in several European countries, including the UK, Ireland, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden.

Residents of Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, and Switzerland can visit Netflix today and sign up to receive an e-mail notification when the service has launched, according to the announcement.
